Silent Hill (2006)

Based on the video game with the same name, a woman searches for her daughter in a seemingly abandoned town...aptly named "Silent Hill". This film, along with the game, is terrifying. You should definitely give it a watch!

Sean Bean is wasted here, I really didn’t understand what his part in the movie was. Ramming home the point that there’s no escape from Silent Hill is pretty difficult when they’re constantly cutting to the outside world and removing tension! Better to stick with Rose’s perspective so we don’t know any more than she does. Fear of the unknown should be the priority in a horror movie.
